Ask people who grew up on a farm in a rural area. Sometimes you have to even if you can't and you do.

I was driving a tractor since 12, including on the road with small farm equipment, and indeed, mostly out of the necessity, but I also received a lot of tuition (from licenced drivers) to know how to behave.

Different times though.

True story, they can already drive a tractor at 10 and I know people who learned to drive a proper truck at 13 too
